"Afr." Collins, of Blue Earth
County, Indulges in Few OBJ
jservatiOns About Minnesota Pol

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON. June 10" Minnesota
is a doubtful state,'' says Mr.. Collins. of
Blue Earth county. 1T is doubtful
state in national as we'll as state politics.
You will find that next year there will
he a wonderful change in the totals of
votes for president by the two great
parties. Blaine had Al ZOO majority in 'S4

believe that the Republican candidate
will receive majority at all, but if he
does, it will not be more than 5000. |
have figured on. MinneSota'S vote for
several years and know something
about it. Enough, at least, to enable
me to come within very small margin
of making good prediction"
'HOw do yOuaccOunt for the changer"
sit is largely sectional. You must
have noticed that the large Republican
majorities in Michigan, Wisconsin, Min
nesota, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska and
Kansas have disappeared. Take Iowa,
for example. In 1880 Iowa gave Garfield
nearly $4,000 majority, and always car
ried the Republican state ticket by up
wards of 10000. In 1884 Iowa only gave
Blaine a majority Of $4,000. and the state
ticket has gone down to about 5000.
Illinois has also followed the lead of
other Western states into theDemocratic
ranks. Since the death of Logan. whose
personal influence was wonderful,
.lllinoisIis conceded by Republicans to be
ia doubtful state. Nebraska has DEM
iscratic congressman, Minnesota has
three, Iowa has four. Those states
used to be solidly Republican in con-
gress."
ssWhat has caused this change?'
SIN my opinion,it is the great national
issue, the tariff, that has produced this
result. The West is free trade sec
ton, by reason of location, and the
natural laws of production and con-
sumption in the business world. The
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1887-06-20

West is akin to the South, in COM
mercial sense, and is adverse to the
East. The old lines of sectional de-
markatiOn, as commonly recognized be-
fore and immediately subsequent to the
war, have been wiped out. The people
of the country are not harrassed by the
Slavery question, nor by the bitterness
of the civil war. They are divided now
on business principles and ideas. Why
even the SO-called Republican papers of
the West and Northwest have been
obliged to come into the Democratic
camp, and preach free trade, or revenue
reform. They dare not do less. 1t Is
their bread and butter. If they dared
would suffer loss financially
do you regard this sentiment as a
growing One?''
Judging from the expressions given
at the polls it is necessary to reach that
conclusion. Take this book, look over
the figures for yourself and be con-
ylnced. l have pointed out the votes of
several states and shown the change.
Now, If you will take the tables of votes
cast since 1880 and study them, you will
see that the change is permanent, grad
ual, solid. There has been no boom for
the Democratic party in the West. 1t
has been steady settlement and
growth. There is Democrat on every
quarter section, and soon there will not
be Republican in any section. Self
interest moves men to vote this way and
that from time to time. When you see
the people all going steadily in one di-
rection, you see the result of study and
careful inquiry. The American people
have not been burying the animos-
tiles of the war without considera-
ton. They have not been coming
TO sober unimpaSSiOned conclusions adj
verse to their former pre;hdices and
passions, without reflection. 1t is their
deliberate judgment that revenue re-
form is necessary. They see that it can
only be attained through the Demo-
cratic party, and they are voting the
Democratic ticket. Keep your eyes
open, and you will see what L tell you
is true. You need not be surprised,
there is no need for your being sur
prised if you see the people of Mime
sofa casting majority of their ballots
for the Democratic national candidates
next year. And, another thing, you
may think it Over-sanguineness on my
part, but you need not be surprised if
the same people of Minnesota cast their
ballots for Democratic legislators, who
will elect Judge Macdonald or some
other good Democrat, in place of Dwight
NJ. Sabin to the United States senate"

Commencement at Madison.


MADISON, Wis, June 19.-The com
mencement exercises of the Wisconsin
State universitybegan to-day with bac-
calureate sermon by the retiring presi-
dent, John BaScOm. The subject of the
sermon was: 1.-The Christian State.''
A brilliant ideal was set forth to guide
the graduates in their aim to reform the
world. Great social abuses were dis
cusSed at length, and the president es-
pecially secured boards of trade and
spectators, ranking them as the most
heartless of thieves, and saying that
petty thefts which were expiated in
state prison were but the merest baga-
telleS compared to those of the board of
trade gambler. Graduates were urged
not to seek toe much for individual in
terest, but to help make the nation a
Christian one. Great stress was laid on
the great mistake made by Americans in
educating their children to think too
much of self and of individual gain, in
stead of being educated for the stars
and stripes. He said they are educated
for the stripes without the stars.
Wednesday will conclude the exercises
of commencement week.

the old soldiers about the com
ing OF the president to st.
Louis. John was especially angry
with William because John had so
recently unfolded and waved his bloody
shirt in Springfield, LII. To be followed
by his big brother, "Cump," with a
letter which actually throws enough
cold water on the shirt to wash "all its
stains away" was too much for John.
He sat down and indited an epistle to
his imprudent and impOlitic big brother
which is expected to induce "Cump'' to
write an another letter, saying that he
didn't mean the other letter, or that he
was full of POmery Sec or something
secular of similar nature. If William
writes such letter it will be under
stood that John has still some influence
with the Sherman family.

late King Alphonso is not yet allowed

a thin linen garment, it lies on a rock
near running spring, in cavern in
the side of the mountain on the slope of
which the palace of the Es-
curial is built. There it will
remain until it has attained
all the peculiar properties of mummy,
and then only will it be placed in that
marvellous jasper vault, under the great
dome of the EseuriaI church, where only
the remains of Spanish kings and of the
mothers of kings are allowed to lie.
Some bodies, notably that of Queen
lsabella'S prot1igate father, remained on
the rocky table for years, subjected to
the peculiar atmosphere of the cavern.

CHASTITY cavern is the "Pudrido.'' a
name which is also sometimes applied
to the vaults containing the bodies of
the infants and infantas of Spain.
